How much did you open it up by - a tiny, tiny bit will make all the difference.

Pick the back end if the car up untill it's at about 45 degrees, then drop it. The chassis should come close* to bottoming out, but not hit the table, certainly not hard.

* - just how close this should be is open to debate - depends on track type and personal preference.
